Notice of Inventory Completion for Native American Human Remains
and Associated Funerary Objects in the Possession of the Metropolitan
Park District of the Toledo Area, Toledo, OH; Correction

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.

ACTION: Notice; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Notice is here given in accordance with the Native American Graves
Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3003, of the
completion of an inventory of human remains and associated funerary
objects in the possession of the Metropolitan Park District of the
Toledo Area, Toledo, OH. The human remains and associated funerary
objects were removed from Audubon Islands State Nature Preserve, Lucas
County, OH.
    This notice is published as part of the National Park Service's
administrative responsibilities under NAGRPA, 25 U.S.C. 3003 (d)(3).
The determinations within this notice are the sole responsibility of
the museum, institution, or Federal agency that has control of the
Native American human remains and associated funerary objects. The
National Park Service is not responsible for the determinations within
this notice.
    This notice revises the determination of cultural affiliation in
the original notice to include two additional Indian tribes.
    In the Federal Register of July 11, 2002, FR Doc. 02-17416, pages
45997-45998, paragraph 9, the last sentence is corrected by
substituting the following sentence:
    Lastly, officials of the Metropolitan Park District of the Toledo
Area have determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2), there is a
relationship of shared group identity that can be reasonably traced
between the Native American human remains and associated funerary
objects and the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians,
Michigan; Little River Band of Ottawa Indians, Michigan; and Ottawa
Tribe of Oklahoma.
    Paragraph 10 is corrected by substituting the following two
paragraphs:
    Representatives of any other Indian tribe that believes itself to
be culturally affiliated with the human remains and associated funerary
objects should contact Gary Horn, Associate Director, Metropolitan Park
District of the Toledo Area, 5100 West Central Avenue, Toledo, OH
43615-2100, telephone (419) 535-3050, before August 8, 2003.
Repatriation of the human remains and associated funerary objects to
the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians, Michigan;
Little River Band of Ottawa Indians, Michigan; and Ottawa Tribe of
Oklahoma may proceed after that date if no additional claimants come
forward.
    The Metropolitan Park District of the Toledo Area is responsible
for notifying the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians,
Michigan; Little River Band of Ottawa Indians, Michigan; Little
Traverse Band of Odawa Indians, Michigan; Ottawa Tribe of Oklahoma;
American Indian Intertribal Association (a nonfederally recognized
Indian group); and Walpole Island First Nation (a nonfederally
recognized Indian group) that this notice has been published.

    Dated: June 17, 2003.
John Robbins,
Assistant Director, Cultural Resources.
